Excerpt from An Union List of Collections on European History in American Libraries: Compiled for the Committee on Bibliography of the American Historical Association Besides corrections, this edition contains eighteen additional titles of the more important sets overlooked in previous printings and nearly two thousand additions to the located copies. On the other hand, however, about a score of duplicate or faulty titles have been withdrawn. The thanks of the Committee and of all historical students are due to the libraries which have so cordially co-operated. The considerable amount of work implied on the part of each co-operating library naturally made some hesitate at first and until the meaning and usefulness to both libraries and historical students was fully explained and understood, but the universally cordial and even enthusiastic response, after the matter was understood, has been most gratifying. The check list was sent out last year (1911) and the results compiled and presented as a report at the annual meeting of the American Historical Association at Buffalo in December of that year. Some of the figures and inferences of this report will be found following this preface. The Check List, uncorrected as to bars, but with indication of location of copies added, as in the present edition, was issued in March as a proof edition.

“Archibald Cary Coolidge [1866-1928]... was born into fortunate circumstances and could easily have spent his years in respectable indolence. In his formal boyhood schooling in a variety of educational institutions he showed no particular early promise of orderly thought and study. But he came alive at Harvard College... [H]e returned to his college, after rigorous study and stimulating travel in Europe, to make a memorable career as a professor of history and international affairs, as a teacher of scholars, as an academic man of affairs, and as the director of a great library. From childhood an instinctive, voracious reader, Coolidge early converted his enthusiasm for books into a deep concern for their use in the world of learning. As a young instructor and assistant professor, he searched out and bought scarce and important titles in his fields of interest and gave them to Harvard. His disciplined mind could not tolerate the crowding and disorder imposed on the Harvard Library by a combination of years of forced economy and haphazard growth. President A. Lawrence Lowell made no mistake in selecting his cousin Archibald Coolidge to help him find a solution to the library crisis Lowell had inherited from his predecessor. Coolidge took over with characteristic energy and enthusiasm. Whether he could have succeeded so completely had not tragedy struck the Widener family [Harry Elkins Widener, scion of two of the wealthiest families in America, Harvard ‘07, accomplished bibliophile despite his youth, died in the 1912 sinking of the Titanic; his father also perished, but his mother survived and gave to Harvard the funds to build the Harry Elkins Widener Memorial Library] is problematical. With the great Widener gift the question of space was settled for a generation, and Coolidge could bring his common sense to bear on the library’s administrative problems and concentrate his acquisitive talents on the strategy of scholarly collecting. Unsparing of himself and unfailingly generous in the cause of books and scholarship, Coolidge built wisely on the solid foundations of the past. He vastly extended the scope of the library’s collections and left a heritage of strength to the next generation, making possible the bold new departures in historical and international studies which followed the second World War.” — William Bentinck-Smith, Preface to Building A Great Library “[A] detailed description of Coolidge’s achievement in building a great and well-organized collection and one of the great libraries of the world... Bentinck-Smith has succeeded in making the building of a library fascinating. He provides excellent biographical footnotes... this is an elegant and important study in a greatly neglected field.” — Robert F. Byrnes, The Journal of American History “Building a Great Library is the story of [Coolidge’s] contribution. It is also of necessity the story of the man, a biography with emphasis on his life’s work. It is told with meticulous scholarship and literary style... an outstanding biographical work and a singularly important study of collection building.” — Arthur T. Hamlin, The Journal of Library History “Mr. Bentinck-Smith has carefully documented the many significant contributions which Coolidge had made as teacher, administrator, scholar, and collector... a book that should be carefully read by anyone interested in research libraries and learning. Mr. Bentinck-Smith’s work is an important contribution to American library history.” — Philip J. McNiff, The New England Quarterly “By telling us so much, Bentinck-Smith highlights once again how much we need a professional history of our premier academic library that will describe, analyze, and generalize Harvard’s experience as it illustrates or contrasts with the typical university library experience in the United States.” — W. L. Williamson, The Library Quarterly: Information, Community, Policy
